The AICPA launched the Accounting Education Center ( www.aicpa.org/aec ), a Web
site that provides educators with resources to enhance accounting
and business curricula and to recruit and prepare students for
entering the profession. The AICPA Core Competency Framework and
Educational Competency Assessment Web site are among those
offerings. The center also provides information on scholarships,
awards, work-life effectiveness and the professional advancement of
women and minority-group members. Other resources include access to
an online discussion forum for accounting educators and links to
information on professional conferences, accounting and auditing
literature, reports and studies as well as membership in the
Institute.
